"Valentine's Day Bouquet" by Ann McCann 9 X 12" Watercolor
My husband went all out for Valentine’s Day and presented me with this bouquet of hydrangeas, lilies, roses and irises. What a feast for a flower painter! It gave me hope during the horrible Texas winter storm last month.
"Castle View" by Ann McCann 11 X 13" Watercolor
This is another watercolor I completed in Janet Roger’s Zoom workshop last week.
"French Abbey" by Ann McCann 9 X 11" Watercolor
I visited the abbey Notre Dame Senanque in Provence several years ago. I did an oil painting of it that I subsequently sold. This week, I painted it again in watercolors in a workshop with instructor Janet Rogers. It brought back fond memories of a wonderful trip. Ah, the smell of lavender and the hum of the hungry bees.
"Iris Trio" by Ann McCann 6 X 8" Watercolor
At the beginning of the pandemic, I did a series of iris watercolors that I titled “Corona Irises,” a play on words. Here is a small one I did that is soft and suggestive, the way I like to paint. For the next three days I am taking a Zoom watercolor course with Janet Rogers who got me reinterested in the medium two years ago!
"Dark and Deep Red Quince" by Ann McCann 9 X 12" Oil
Here is one more tribute to the bright red/hot pink quince blossoms that bloom here in early February.
"Happy Valentine's Day" Watercolor by Ann McCann
Enjoy your day! It is 10 degrees and snowy here in Dallas.
"First Flowers" by Ann McCann 9 X 12" Oil on Cradled Panel
Quince is blooming here with its hot pink/orange flowers. I have been painting them in watercolor (see below) and decided to do one in oil. This is a special panel that has wood sides so is framed and ready to go. I have a photo of this wood frame below.
Watercolor Hydrangeas by Ann McCann
“Hydrangea Flow” 10 X 14” Watercolor. Here I created blue hydrangeas that have substance but blurred boundaries that flow together.
“Hydrangea Clouds” 8 X 10” Watercolor. Here I created multicolored hydrangeas that are as soft as clouds.
House Portrait Commission by Ann McCann 8 X 10" Watercolor
A realtor friend commissioned me to do a watercolor of this house that she had just sold. She gifted it to the seller. I really like painting house portraits and adding all the little details. Consider one of your house or that of a friend. They make really nice gifts!
"Hydrangeas" by Ann McCann 9 X 12" Watercolor
I can’t grow these in Dallas, but I really enjoy them when we visit the East Coast, especially Cape Cod. They flourish there and are huge. Love the blues!
